TRANSLATION
1)
Lord Gaurānga is calling, "Wake up,
sleeping souls! Wake up, sleeping souls! How long will you sleep in the lap of
the witch called Māyā?
2)
You have forgotten the way of devotional service and are lost in the world of
birth and death.
3)
I have descended just to save you; other than Myself
you have no friend in this world.
4)
I have brought the medicine that will wipe out the disease of illusion from
which you are suffering. Take this mahā-mantra-Hare
Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa,
Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa,
Hare Hare/Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma
Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare."
5)
Śrīla Bhaktivinoda
Thākura says: "I fall at the Lord's feet,
having taken this mahā-mantra."
